I seriously doubt the Liberals will come back this time, but I also think writing them off to wandering in the wilderness is probably a bit premature.
PP wanted to get rid of the Bank of Canada and give olive branches to Freedumb protestors. How the hell are you suppose to win Ontario with that?

Yeah i dont' give 2 kyits about polls where only Con seniors answer the phones in the middle of the afternoon because they want to talk.. lol

Yes Canadians will switch to crypto, have no healthcare and all be home schooled. The cons learned from the Ontario Greenbelt scandal that people have to not only be dumb enough to vote for them but also ignorant enough not to investigate them. Only a fringe amount fit that demographic currently fits that profile, but they're working on it!

You know what else Ontario doesn’t care about? Alberta provincial politics. I doubt Trudeau campaigns against Smith. Would be a waste of time and a dumb move. Trudeau may be a lot of things, but when it comes to campaigning, he is pretty savvy.

When you run multiple ads about how Smith is going to take away the CPP from your grubby Ontarian hands you better believe they will care. The Libs will just paint PP and Danille Smith as one as the same.

No one outside of Alberta cares about Smith.
That would get a great bit "who?" from most voters in other provinces.

I hope you are right. I hope the Liberals campaign against Smith. Will be a Conservative majority if they do.

It does if you watch NFL games. I had a good chuckle at it the other day. So cringe.

So the feds, once again, are calling the grocery CEOs back to Ottawa to explain and defend grocery prices. The feds want it to appear they’re doing something but they’re putting the blame on companies that are just passing rising costs along to customers. The CEOs should tell them to take a hike and mount a comms campaign to educate consumers on the reasons for high grocery prices. The feds should concentrate on actions that can actually accomplish something meaningful, like strategies for bringing down fuel costs.

Is this the sort of unbiased news that you follow on Twitter?

He didn't treat the reporter like crap
He did answer the question both times when it was a simple clear question
Calling him a pr!ck is childish
Attacking his wife is disgusting.
Trump trump trump trump trump

Is he stoned? Seriously looks like he is daydreaming or something and grabs at a generic response.

He looks bored at another reporter trying to sound intelligent. His answer made more sense than her question.

His lack of glasses make his utter disdain for the interviewer a lot more visible. He should go back to glasses if he wants to act like that.

Agreed, squinting doesn’t look good on anyone.
